Fortunes: Steve Bing's children who will receive a millionaire inheritance after his suicide
Tragedy: Billionaire Steve Bing, Liz Hurley's ex, dies after falling from a 27 floor
If a powerful gentleman is money, it takes a lot of imagination to know what rank Damian (18) -the only son of actress Liz Hurley, with whom he bears a great resemblance- and Kira (21) -daughter of former tennis player Lisa Bonder- will acquire. when they
inherit the 510 million euros from their father
, Steve Bing (55).
The billionaire committed suicide on June 24 after jumping from the 24th floor of his apartment located in Los Angeles.
At the moment, the situation is quite complicated since, according to the last will, it
seems that Steve had only around 300,000 euros
, a negligible sum for someone who inherited several hundred million euros at birth that was deposited in a trust for avoid inheritance taxes.
How will Damian and Kira get all that money back?
This process can last several years or until Peter Bing, the suicide's father, dies.
Despite his success as a producer and philanthropist, Steve suffered from a
deep depression
that was exacerbated by the confinement.
Before dying he
wrote two letters to his offspring.
His great fortune came from his grandfather and his great-uncle, who founded the Bing & Bing society to build some of the most prestigious buildings in Manhattan, such as the Drake Hotel, where Lillian Gish, Jimi Hendrix or Muhammad Ali lived.
It has always been claimed that
Steve was so disinterested
in his children that the English and American tabloids nicknamed him
Bing Laden
(a pun that refers to the former terrorist Bin Laden) for the cruelty with which he treated the English interpreter, to who always accused of being a
gold digger.

However, as the
Daily Mail
has exclusively revealed
, Steve always protected his heirs through a trust fund.
This gesture caused him to antagonize his family, especially his father, who tried to
contest the will
because he
did not consider Damian and Kira as his grandchildren
as they were born out of wedlock.
The family war was so bloody that last year it reached the courts.
Apparently, there was a
black hand
behind this whole affair since Mary, Steve's sister, wanted to make sure that the fortune she had deposited in a trust Peter Bing - son of the founder of the construction company - would go to her two suckers, Lucy and Anthony.

owned Las Vegas.

considerate and generous man

their fortune to social causes
